I hate it, he's not good enough, he was going to be dropped anyway. He might have got in first before Roosy gave him the bad news. Watts will be lucky to get back in the team and today Hawthorn would have made him look like a girl.

Your hatred of Jack Watts is so sad. And you claim to be a Melbourne supporter? Support your players mate!

What do you suppose you look like, using such language?
 

Sitting in the Southern working on my suntan. The sun is blinding so hopefully I won't see much of the game. I think we will be lucky to kick three goals with this lineup!

Roos just said on MMM that Watts asked to be dropped this week as he feels he has been letting the team down in recent weeks. He has his haters but I reckon that is pretty honourable by Jack

Edit spelling

You wonder why the coaching panel 'agreed' to drop Jack, given they had doubts about Hogan's fitness. A pep talk from the coaches to Jack about how much the team needed him might have been the incentive he needed. It worries me, since when do players call the shots.

Who's the [censored] who thought Freo/Syd/Haw was a great successive run to give us at the start of the season?

Talk about completely destroying any confidence we gained against Richmond/Gold Coast (especially now they've been proven fairly inept by other teams).

You wont find anyone who does not like Jack Watts the person, that has never been questioned

Yes it is sad, but it's a physical rough game and he is too scared to get his hair messed up. He is in the wrong sport.

Apparently Jack Watts rates himself so highly that he decides when he plays and when he doesn't, bloody joke!

Far out that is pathetic from Watts if true. Asking to be dropped, has anyone ever done that before? No competitive footballer with any self respect would do that.

Just give it away jack.

I bet he's played 100 more AFL games than you.

c'mon demons, hoping for a competitive effort

7 of our "best 22" missing, 9 of you include petracca and Trengove, 10 if you include Jamar.

Our list doesn't run that deep that we can afford to have players 25-32 and not get belted.


Now would be a good time to pray, ladies and gents.

Only Yze from memory

no Hogan? replaced by Pedersen? jesus christ

this will be a snoozefest

Was hoping for Gawn

I'm at the ground listening to the roars as the teams came on. I think they forgot to advertise the game, nobody here, no atmosphere at all except really loud music.

Or to start drinking...

In contrast to Adelaide/Saints game. Packed house and Saints doing real well.

 

Garry Lyon just suggested anyone in the players rooms should give Jesse a wide berth as he is like a bear being stalked.

I think he wanted to play :rolleyes:

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
